Bubblewrap Building




The unofficial name is "Water Cube", a futuristic Olympic pool.

These pictures are of the new indoor pool in Beijing, China, being built specifically for the 2008 Summer Olympics. Swimmers such as Michael Phelps and US teammates have praised the architecture after having recently visited the construction site. If the final product appears anything like the artist renderings shown here, I would consider this certainly one beautiful building.
